Adventure
We all need some adventure in life and these books are often fast-paced, full of problem solving and keep readers engaged, especially if they are still developing a love for reading. Super fun to read out loud before bed (keeping hard-working caregivers awake), to experience something extra fun together. Interesting settings and characters will bring out the Indiana Jones and McGyver in us all!
